“I can tend to be a little high maintenance with my dog because he is my baby, but Bill did an amazing job at taking care of coda drop off and pick up were both amazing. You can tell that he really loves dogs and takes very good care of them. Coda was with him about 16 hours and I got two pictures and good feedback on my puppy I highly recommend and definitely will be using bill again.”

“Cyndi is fantastic! She is so thoughtful and caring. She took such great care of our sweet puppy. She sent me pictures and videos throughout the day of my dog running, playing and getting lots of love. Cyndi even let me use her discount code as it was my first time using rover. That was incredibly thoughtful! I very much highly recommend her!”

I will follow your instructions for feeding and medications. Your fur baby will be in a good home with lots of love and affection ! 🐶🥰

About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. When I was a little girl I would always help take care of my animals with my mother. I used to live on a farm and I have had experience with many different pets/animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals and small animals. I also have experience with bathing, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and expressing anal glands. I can also administer medications. This is my full time job so I can do my very best to accommodate anyone who needs a pet sitter who truly cares about their pets. My wife and daughters help me sometimes as well. Our daughters are also knowledgeable in pet care from getting hands on experience through me. My wife just come with me every where I stay for Moral support. 💕 I have a fully privacy fenced in yard. If the pet is in a home without fence I will be sure to leash walk your pet for safety reasons. If your pet feels comfortable in a crate feel free to bring it. Also if there is a special toy, bed or something they enjoy or prefer they can bring it along for their stay.

About: I love dogs. Friends call me the whisperer. I lost my Princess 2 years ago to cancer and I find that this is the best medicine for me. I love to travel so having another baby right now is not in the cards. Taking care of your baby is the next best thing. I have had people fly me out to Portland, California, and New York to pet sit for them. I absolutley love it. Some of the dogs I have cared for were sick or new family members. I love to take them on new adventures but only if Mom and Dad are okay with it. I also love to train, play, and hug on them. My only job is taking care of your dog, so I am with them the entire day and night. Sometimes they will go on a golf cart ride with me. My yard is not fenced in so your dog would be walked regularly. There are plenty of grassy areas next to and accross the street from me. If there is a schedule you have for the dog that is what will be followed.

“I have had Bailey stay with Tifany and her family a couple of times, and each time she has ensured that Bailey felt right at home with her other pups! Tifany makes sure her home is clean and dog friendly. Tifany has an outdoor area also ready for the dogs to play and have fun. If they get dirty, Tifany washes them so they come home clean as well as exhausted. She communicates regularly throughout your dog’s stay with pictures and updates. I definitely recommend Tifany and her husband!”

About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was 7 years old. I have no children, outside of my gentle giant Taz- a TN mountain cur, who is a service animal. He’s been with me for the last four years, well-traveled, and well-behaved. I WFH so I have ample time to get to know your fur baby. We will play, visit the dog park(s) in the area, and enjoy plenty of cuddle time. I offer bathing service, pickup services (within 30 miles) and can even cook to accommodate sensitive diets. I specialize in working with dogs that require extra special attention, such as those with separation anxiety. I have availability 7x a week, since I work from home M-F with weekends off. Whether you need a simple daycare service or overnight boarding, your baby will be right at home. While my dog has NO aggression(s) - such as kid, food, cat/dog - I understand not everyone will feel comfortable with interactions. I offer a XL crate and a separate room for babies with anxiety or that require isolation. Otherwise, your baby can feel free to stretch out in the sun in the yard or wherever is comfortable.

“Was a little anxious about it since it was my first time getting a sitter. However, Nancy and her family took all my worries away. By far my best experience with a sitter. Not only will your pet be treated as their own family, you will also get constant videos and pictures of your pets well being. I highly recommend this sitter for anyone that wants a trustworthy individual that will take care of your pet.”

About: Hi there. My name is Elisha. I am recently retired and looking to fill my days with love from your fur baby! I live with my husband and our 2 year old terrier mix, Jack (featured in my photo). We rescued him at the beginning of this year, but have had dogs for the last 15 years. We live in a condo located in a quiet neighborhood. We don't have a fenced in yard, but there is lots of space to run around and it's a very dog friendly neighborhood. I am available for pet sitting, pet boarding, doggy daycare or dog walks. My dog Jack is very friendly and loves to play. One of our favorite weekend activities is meeting new friends at the dog park. Hope to meet your favorite family member soon!

“What a great day for a Tyson he was so excited and happy when I picked him up.”

“Marcela was WONDERFUL with our two dogs. My 3 month old puppy is very shy and nervous around new people and new dogs, and she made him feel super comfortable, and her dog took him under her wing and played with him the whole time. I can not recommend her more highly!”

About: Have over 10 years experience as a vet tech and exotic animal sanctuary keeper that worked up to Sanctuary manager. I have experience and love for almost all animals as I also used to be a wildlife rehabber as well through various roles. I love the opportunity to help provide consistency and calm compassion during the uneasy times of pet parent absence. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Busy but flexible. I do have a mini zoo and other responsibilities so advanced notice to allow for proper planning is ideal but I’m also pretty flexible and open/willing to roll with the punches so to speak for unavoidable last minute needs. I always do a meet and greet with every new client- I think it’s really important for the animal to feel comfortable so I always do my best to learn and adhere to yours and their usual habits as much as possible to keep their life as consistent as possible.

About: What Pet Parents Can Expect Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 35 years of experience caring for pets of all kind, from pampered pups to quirky cats, bunnies, and everything in between. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting care, they’re getting love, snuggles, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I specialize in senior pets, special needs animals, and those who just need a little extra TLC. Whether your fur baby is shy, spunky, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. You can expect: Regular updates with cute photos and notes A calm, nurturing environment A clean, safe space for play and rest Patience, reliability, and tons of love Experience with administering meds and handling special diets Think of me as your pet’s favorite extended family member, the one they’re always excited to see! Hope to meet your dog(s), cat(s), horse(s), etc soon! :) Pet care isn’t just part of my day. It is my day. From sunrise snuggles to sunset strolls, my entire routine revolves around the animals I care for. Whether I’m feeding breakfast to a sleepy pup, giving midday meds to a senior cat, or ending the evening with playtime and cuddles, every moment is planned with pets in mind. Caring for animals has been my lifelong passion, and I’ve built a lifestyle around making sure every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m always home or nearby, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected. This isn’t just a job to me. It’s who I am. When your pet stays with me, they become part of my heart and my home. The care I provide is 100% customized to whatever that pet's parents do as a routine with them. My goal is to make their stay with me as close to what they are used to as possible.

“We LOVED Hannah! She is the kindest person and took great care of our dog. She has 2 dogs that were just as sweet as their owner. She sent pics daily and kept us updated - covert quick to respond to any questions. Will definitely be using her again!”
